Departure Digest Launches Five-Minute Audio Travel Show Covering Travel News, Deals, and Points and Miles
A new audio-first travel publication built to sound like the savviest friend in your group chat.
New York, NY, October 04, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Departure Digest, a new audio-first travel publication, today launched its first episode. The free show delivers airline news, hotel updates, travel deals, and points and miles strategies in five-minute episodes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and at DepartureDigest.com.
Departure Digest is designed to sound like the friend who always knows about a deal before anyone else does: the one who finds the seat upgrade, books the hotel before it goes viral, and can spot a real deal from a marketing gimmick. Episodes cut through industry jargon to explain travel news in plain English for beginners and experienced travelers alike.
Each episode covers airline and hotel loyalty programs, credit card rewards, airfare and hotel deals, destination inspiration, and practical booking strategies travelers can use right away.
Travel news and deals are often scattered across social media, newsletters, and long-form outlets. Departure Digest brings the most useful updates together in a quick check-in published three times a week, making it easy to stay informed during a commute or morning routine.
"Planning a trip can mean a dozen open tabs and hours of research," said Benji Stawski, co-founder of Departure Digest. "We wanted a five-minute update that cuts through all of that."
"Five minutes fits into a commute or a coffee break, so people can actually use what they hear instead of saving it for later," added Eliza Schuman, who co-founded Departure Digest alongside Stawski.
Listeners can subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube, or visit DepartureDigest.com for new episodes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
